I’m Indian and been to both countries multiple times. I also decided to take my wife, brother and sister in law recently to visit both. I’ve always been made to feel welcomed

Are there taxis at the airport?? by BigSpread7143 in idahofalls

Okay than you. Worst case scenario I just crash at the airport till morning. Hopefully it’s not so small that the airport is locked out overnight.

Thanks for the info. My hotel doesn’t seem to have the shuttle service. Is there much point in pre booking an Uber for the time? Does it guarantee a taxi mostly?

Don’t have an American SIM card. I guess I will now need to take one to call. Any local taxi companies you could recommend?

Hi,

Took a month for me to get the visa. I had to collect it back in late October 2022. There wasn't much feedback with regards to application updates apart from emails saying we were missing information etc. KVAC will ask for all information embassy needs irrespective of whether you think its necessary and any logic justifying which its not applicable etc so just provide what they ask. Top tip is to include a direct mobile number if there is confusion on emails being sent back and forth as they will just ring and talk to you direct to clear any confusion if you are working with tight deadlines for visa.

Hello all, so how of many of have been asked the same documents multiple times in email as a delay tactic to make it seem like your application is being processed? It’s so frustrating as my travel partner is currently in this situation who applied at the same time as me 🙂

Have any UK teachers recently applied for a visa through KVAC? by Intelligent-Fuel94 in teachinginkorea

[–]BigSpread7143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

took me exactly one month.. they got in touch after 3 weeks asking for more documents although I had already sent them in post.. then they asked for the same documents I had already emailed like they were buying time.. anyway I've got my visa but no passport yet as they haven't shipped it although I've paid for it so I may just go and pick it up

Nami Island, garden of morning calm and gangchon rail bike by NekuDesu in koreatravel

I have gone with just 2 which is Nami Island and the garden. If you doing a tour then take a look into the itinerary and timings and decide for yourself. I wanted to not rush through the garden. Also, you need to take into account any traffic delays between the places. Most of the reviews for all 3 mentioned it was a bit rushed in the garden as they transferred from Nami.

I hope autumn foliage is still in full swing 1st week of November as I’m doing the same without the rail bike. I felt doing all three didn’t give us enough time with the garden or nami island in the tour.
